My growing girl turned 6 months old on the 21st... which I still cant believe... half a year has gone by! Olivia is weighing in at 16lbs 1 oz and is 26 inches long... no teeth yet but everything goes straight to her mouth of course:) She is starting to get up on her hands and knees.. I'm sure she will soon figure out what to do next... we MUST baby proof the house soon. She is also sitting up by herself now... but sometimes falls over... she doesn't get upset when she falls over... just keeps playing.
She is soooo happy and laid back all the time... takes after daddy in that aspect. We went to the pediatrician the other day: she got more shots:( and he said she is doing great... except he says her eyes don't follow objects equally so he is sending her to a pediatric opthamologist... kinda scary for me but I am praying everything is fine. From what I have heard and read on the internet she may have to wear a patch over one eye to strengthen the muscle. So maybe she can be a pirate for Halloween.. hehe. Uncle Eric will love that... he has some what of a pirate addiction:) We will just have to wait and see what the expert says.
Yesterday.. August 25th, Ben and I celebrated our 4 year anniversary! We both had the day off together which does not happen often and we just hung out with Olivia together... all in all a nice quiet day. We went to breakfast with Ben's dad and step mom and went to dinner with my dad and Deb... awesome, relaxing day. Each year we take a picture of ourselves on our anniversary so we can watch how we change over the years. Here is this year's pic!
